Arghh, every time I see a duc like that I want to shoot myself. I had literally a heated barn find original. The thing needed to be repainted and gone through, but at the time, 5 years ago I figured it wasn't a sound/cost efficient idea to try and keep a 750 duc running, sooooooo, I sold it to a friend for 2400.00 and two months later prices went up to around 10K for garbage and have since gone through the roof. I hate myself sometimes. :)

glad someone made it out there - i wanted to go but damn it was raining out on long island, seemed like everytime i pulled the bike out of the garage another storm rolled in.

Were the Japanese hipsters running around taking picture of each other in full force again this year...

oh and i paid $800 bucks for my 74 ducati some 20+ years ago just to reinforce selling low (still got it!) at the wrong time
